Where can I buy my uniform?
Uniform can either be bought from our online shop - Scout Store - Scout and Guide shop
or from a local supplier. If you're not sure where to start, or could use a little help with uniform costs, fear not. Your Explorer leader can chat to you about options. The most important thing when you first arrive is wearing something that you feel natural and comfortable in.
